Lempäälä Church, Medieval church in Lempäälä, Finland

The church features gray stone construction, four-leaf clover windows, and a cross-shaped layout after its 1830s modifications to the foundation structure.

The original parish church from 1504 honored Saint Birgitta, with the earliest written records of the Lempäälä parish dating back to 1430.

The wooden crucifix carved from birch remains one of the surviving medieval artifacts within the church, representing regional craftsmanship from that period.

Located at Kirkkopolku 1, the church welcomes visitors during summer weekdays between 10 AM and 4 PM, offering guided tours of the structure.

The bell tower next to the main building functions as both a traditional bell housing and a museum displaying ecclesiastical objects.
